We don't have much in the way of details, but the word making the rounds among former WCW wrestlers is that Marcus "Buff" Bagwell was hospitalized and is in intensive care following a car wreck. As I noted, we don't have any further information as I write this, but we wish Bagwell and his family nothing but the best.

Hope he gets well soon

I dunno I lost all respect I had for Buff I don't wish him ill but I'll tell my story.

So about 5 6 years ago I was managing a buffalo wild wings here in lancaster. Some local fed hired Bagwell to come in for the big match. He came into our he and his party of 6 drank 1200 dollars worth of alcohol (which isn't to insane at a bdubs) but it was the end of the night that was sad. They stayed until the very last possible minute. His posse was having a hard time to get him to leave so they placed pills on the floor all the way out to the car that they had waiting. He got on all fours like a dog picking them up off the floor and crawling to the car. Once outside the car (id locked the door but he'd been trying to get back in) he convinced two the sluttier waitress to go back to his hotel. He was married at the time.

I hope he's not hurt but I wouldn't be shocked if he's at fault.

Man, that sounds like a hell of a time. At least the man knows how to party.

Update:

TMZ.com obtained a copy of the police report for Buff Bagwell's car wreck yesterday in Georgia. According to their report, Bagwell phoned his wife and "advised her he was about to have a seizure."

Bagwell lost control of his jeep, which hit the raised median, causing it to flip multiple times.

As noted earlier, Bagwell is sedated due to his injuries, which include a broken neck, broken facial bones and a broken jaw. The accident took place just days after the anniversary of the night Bagwell broke his neck wrestling for WCW.

We wish Bagwell and his family the best during this trying time.

That is pretty insane the amount of injuries he has. Seems like he is real lucky to be alive still hope he pulls through.

If he knew he was going to have a seizure, why couldn't he have stopped the car instead of making a call whilst driving?

Hope he gets better though.

Maybe he figured it would be best to try and rush to someone who can help before his condition got worse as opposed to waiting around and suffering? I dunno. You do drastic things in a panic.

When I read the update this was my first thought as well.

What idiot continues to drive when they think they will have a seizure, he put others at risk. If he had to time to call, he had the time to pull over then phone his wife tell her what was happening and tell her to send an ambulance to where he was. I feel less sorry for him now because this could easily have been avoided.
